My body hurts just from watching that snatch video. I mean it. You caused me physical pain.

On a serious note, those are some sweet numbers man. Keep it up.

ahah I found pictures of me freshman year. I was SOOO Skinny

and of course I eventually won

Then Here are pics from last year

Ill have pics from this year sooner or later. Its funny looking at these. You can see all the hard work is paying off. These pictures are a year apart. I am even bigger and stronger now. So when I get pics from this year we can sit back and laugh some more

Alright... so my life has been busy as of late. I have been wrestling since November 15th. I am wrestling at the 215-pound weight class despite only weighing around 200. Our team this year is very good. So far our record is 12-0. I unfortunately hurt my knee before the first match and did not get to wrestle in every match. I ended up bruising the bone, tearing my lateral meniscus, and spraining my LCL. I was out for about 2 week. I ended up missing 5 matches. I since then have wrestled 7 going 6-1. Our team and I are looking to make some noise in the state and things are looking pretty good. Since wrestling is very high demand lifting has not been a common occurrence. Wrestling is from 4-6:30. We usually start off with some sort of run for about a half an hour. Our running is always intense. We then go in the room and drill and practice new moves and old moves. We do this in till about 5:30. We then do 30-45 minutes of live wrestling. For the rest of practice we condition. We usually do a circuit of bodyweight exercises. So practice is very hard. I never really get a chance to lift.
Today I really felt the urge to lift so I did after practice
I warmed up then did
Deadlift 45x5 135x5 225x5 295x3 365x1 415x1
And then called it a day
I also got calipers for Christmas so I attempted to figure out my body fat. I took measurements from 7 sites and the results are as follows
The Abdominal Site: 12 mm
The Triceps Site 22 mm
The chest site: 8 mm
The Midaxillary Site: 4 mm
The Subscapular site: 7mm
The Suptailiac Site: 9 mm
The Thigh Site: 12 mm
This brings my body fat to 12%
Which makes my fat mass 24 lbs and my lean mass 176. This reading seems about right from my observations. It may be slight low. I know I need to work on taking readings, but I think some are too high (triceps) and some are too low (Midaxillary) so it evened out.

Its been a while since my last update. I have been wrestling well and my record stands at 18-3 with a heartbreaking lose to the number 2 seed in the county. My team is currently 17-1 with a bs lose that the other team had to cheat to get ( fake an injury when our kid did an illegal move). We are well on our way to states and I am well on my way to making some noise in the county tournament. I have recently placed 1st at the grapple at the brook( a 16 team tournaments held at our school).

Here are some pictures

WRESTLING IS FINALLY OVER!!!!

]
so it has been a while since my last update. I ended the season with a record of 23-3. I took 5th place in counties, and regions. I missed going to states in a very close match. It was me and the county champ and I lost 9-8 in the final seconds, but its okay because wrestling is fianlly over. I can start to lift again

and lacrosse starts on thursday. I am taking this week off then I will start lifting

Kevin T. · 02-25-2007, 04:09 PM

Congrats on your wrestling season and good luck with lacrosse!

Mahler · 02-25-2007, 04:46 PM

BigD,
Congratulations on the wrestling season. It will be great to see you lifting again.

bigDman · 03-05-2007, 06:41 PM

Foam rolling
Warm-up
Box Squats 45x10 135x5 155x3 185x3 205x3 225x3 245x3 275x3
Good Mornings 135x5 185x5 185x5 185x5 PR
Abdominal Fall Out with Blast Straps 3x10
Then I did more ab stuff

Alright I think the Box Squats might have been a PR, but thats only because i haven't done triples of the box in a long time. I felt very weak, but am hoping the strength comes back soon. I know my lower back and abs suck so I am doing extra work on them.
Lacrosse is going well, and I am hoping to make at least 3rd team all county this year
